Janmashtami will be celebrated for three days, date dispute; Know when is the best time for you

Rakshabandhan was celebrated for two days. There is now talk of celebrating Janmashtami for three days. The date of appearance of Lord Krishna is disputed. There is already a distinction between Smartanaam and Vaishnavanam for this fast. Also this year there is a difference in date and constellation, apart from that some scholars have divided the festival into three days.

The entire life of Paramatma Yogeshwar Shri Krishna was a struggle and controversies were also connected with his life. Lord Krishna was born in Dwapar Yuga to Bhadrapada Ashtami Tithi and Rohini Nakshatra. King Parikshit is considered the last king of the Dwapar Yuga and it was from his tenure that the Kali Yuga started. 5123 years of Kali Yuga have passed.

According to some scholars, the Ashtami date of Krishna Paksha of Bhadrapada falls for two days. Ashtami Tithi begins at 9:21 p.m. on Thursday, August 18, 2022, and will remain until 10:50 p.m. on Friday, August 19, 2022. According to religious beliefs, Lord Krishna was born at midnight, so August 18 is the best day to celebrate the birthday of birth of Kanha at night.

According to Ganesh Aapa and Mahavir Panchang, Ashtami is until 1:06 p.m. on Friday, August 19.
On the other hand, Harphool Shastri, the Purvacharya of Hanumat Sanskrit Mahavidyalaya says that only the published Panchangs of Kashi are prevalent here. It is very clear in all this that Ashtami Tithi arrives on Friday at midnight and that Ashtami is also there at sunrise. In this sense, whether Vaishnav or Smart, all will observe Janmashtami fast on Friday August 19 and switch to Navami on Saturday August 20.

He said that according to Ganesh Aapa Panchang, Ashtami Tithi will start at 12:14 p.m. on Thursday and stay all day until 1:06 p.m. or 1:06 p.m. on Friday, August 19. Similarly, Hanumangarhi Priest, Pt. Satish Vaidik quoted Mahavir Panchang and said that Ashtami will start from 12:14 p.m. Thursday and stay until 1:06 p.m. Friday.

The festival will be celebrated on August 19 in Ramjanmabhoomi, Kanak Bhawan and Badasthan
Acharya Satyendra Das Shastri, the chief archarch of Ramlala seated in Ramjanmabhoomi, tells that all these festivals are important on Ramnavami or Janmashtami. On the day when Ashtami Tithi is found at midnight, on that day the appearance of God will be considered and likewise fasting etc. will be done. He said that Janmashtami will be celebrated on August 19 at Ramlala court. Similarly, Janmashtami will be celebrated on August 19 in all places of family tradition, including Kanak Bhawan, Kaleram Mandir and Janaki Mahal. Similarly, Dashrath Mahal, Barasthan Peethadheeshwar Bindugadyacharya Swami Devendra Prasadacharya Maharaj said that Ashtami is received in Udaya Tithi due to which the festival will be celebrated only on August 19.

Hanumangarhi, Maniram Cantonment, Ramvallabhkunj and Kaushalesh Sadan and others will celebrate the festival on 20
On the other hand, due to the primacy given to Rohini Nakshatra, in most temples of the Vaishnava tradition, Lord Krishna’s Praktyotsav will be celebrated on Saturday, August 20, and fasting will also be practiced on that day. Mahant Kamalnayan Das Maharaj, the successor of Maniram Cantonment, said that Rohini Tithi will be on Saturday, due to which the festival will be celebrated on the same day.

Ramvallabhkunj manager Rajkumar Das confirmed the Janmashtami celebration on Saturday, citing Decision magazine. Similarly, Hanumat Niwas Mahant Acharya Mithilesh Nandini Sharan said that Nakshatra is important in the birth of a person so the festival will only be celebrated on August 20.
